Immune Support IV in Austin: The Immunity
A drip built around vitamin C and zinc, with a glutathione push to finish. A registered nurse brings it to your home, hotel or rental.
Your first drip starts with a $26.99 video visit. By booking, you agree to our Service Terms.
Vitamin C and Zinc, Then Glutathione
- IV fluids. The bag everything else rides in.
- High-dose vitamin C. The NIH's supplement office says it plays an important role in immune function. Your body also needs it to make collagen, and it works as an antioxidant.
- Zinc. A mineral with a hand in immune function, wound healing, and building proteins and DNA, per the same office.
- Glutathione, given last. An antioxidant your own cells make. Your nurse pushes it slowly once the bag is empty.
Pills Hit a Ceiling
Your body keeps a tight grip on how much vitamin C reaches your blood. Take more by mouth and you absorb a smaller share of it. The extra mostly leaves in your urine.
An IV skips your gut, so vitamin C given that way can reach blood levels far higher than any pill. That's why this drip carries a high dose.
Higher levels aren't a promise of how you'll feel, and we don't make one. The Immunity supports normal immune function and hydration. It doesn't prevent or treat any illness.
For the Weeks That Pile Up
A Flight Out of AUS
Book it at home the day before a trip, or the evening you land. A nurse comes to you either way.
A Packed Conference Week
Days of sessions, dinners and hotel rooms. Book one at the hotel before the first morning. Austin's big weeks.
Too Many Short Nights
A move, a deadline, a long run of early mornings. When sleep has been short for a while, this one comes to the couch.
A Winter Routine
Some people like a regular drip through the colder months. It goes alongside sleep, good food and the vaccines your doctor recommends, never in place of them.
High-Dose Vitamin C Isn't for Everyone
On your video visit, a licensed provider reviews your health history and decides whether The Immunity is right for you. This drip has three questions of its own.
- G6PD deficiency. In people with this inherited condition, high-dose vitamin C can break down red blood cells. The National Cancer Institute says they "should not receive high doses of vitamin C because of the risk of developing hemolysis."
- Kidney disease. Kidney failure has been reported after high-dose IV vitamin C in people whose kidneys already had problems.
- Fingerstick glucose meters. High-dose vitamin C can make some strip-based meters read falsely high for a while afterward. If you check your blood sugar, say so.
If The Immunity isn't a fit, the provider can approve another drip, like The Baseline.
$300, About an Hour
The Immunity is $300 per person. It covers your nurse, the supplies, and travel within 15 miles of downtown Austin. Plan on about an hour.

Two fees can apply. A late start after 10 PM adds $50, and a group of five or more at one address adds $75 for setup. The menu spells them out.
You pay for it yourself. We don't bill insurance companies.

The Immunity Questions
Will The Immunity keep me from catching a cold or the flu?
No, and no IV can promise that. The Immunity gives you nutrients your immune system uses for its normal work, plus fluids. If you're already sick, see a doctor instead of booking a drip.
Who shouldn't get high-dose vitamin C?
People with G6PD deficiency, because high doses can damage their red blood cells, and people with kidney disease. The provider asks about both on your video visit and can approve another drip when this one isn't a fit.
I check my blood sugar with a fingerstick meter. Does that matter?
Yes, so tell the provider and your nurse. High-dose vitamin C can make some strip-based glucose meters show a falsely high number for a while after the drip.
How is The Immunity different from the Myers Cocktail?
The Myers has B12, B complex, vitamin C and magnesium. The Immunity uses a high dose of vitamin C with zinc, then finishes with a glutathione push. It costs $50 more.
Is there any medication in The Immunity?
No. It's fluids, vitamin C, zinc and glutathione. The Hangover Reset and The Hype are the drips with medication in them.
